Ouch, £57,600 for the joy of driving a Ferrari that you don't own for 2 years. Those are expensive memories you're buying
I reckon the guy that originally owned the one I was looking at, lost more than that in 6 months and 3K miles!!!

Best value out there at the minute S2000 is the one at Romans, virtually identical to mine. £210k for 16/16 with 5k on.

Exactly, nothing I've been looking at has sold yet in the past few weeks, so perhaps the market for these is a little 'toppy' at the mo.
I suspect sub £200k is the right price for reasonable spec cars ???

Most of the cars that are over list are SOR with dealers.....think if any dealer was writing a cheque for one just now it would be sub 200k for a good spec low mileage car....As the supply of used 488's increases and with winter on the way the number on the cheque only goes one way.

Hi guys, looking to move in to a Ferrari, and have seen this.

Would appreciate your thoughts please?

Got to be one of the prettiest Ferraris for decades. But wrong colour - only Rosso or Gialo are suitable for a mid engined Ferrari sports car

Your quite a bit out on your estimations there, especially for good spec low mileage cars.

I have never quite understood this moronic attitude to buy a special car.

Surely you buy one when you can enjoy it to the fullest, rather than being a tight a***e and try and save a few thousand pounds.

Mrs C has ordered a new patio set today, maybe we should wait until November and get one then as it will be cheaper. We can enjoy sitting outside in the howling wind and rain safe in the comfort that we have saved ourselves a few pennies.

Weather is very difficult to forecast I would always try and buy wisely no one likes an expensive trade
